New to the forum

[PLACECRAFT20]

I am new to the forum. My girlfriend just bought a used limited that some one spent a bunch of time and money on.
I thought you guys might k ow who it belonged too.
It's a 2011 with old man emu springs. Icon upper control arms, grill craft grill, lights mounted behind the gill, an after market roof rack along with all of the 4 runner features including navigation.
I think she did well on her choice.

Looks like she picked a nice one! The rack is nice (on the truck!!). It is a Baja Utility Flat Rack. I think the majority here runs Gobi racks or Baja's with the side rails so searching for threads with a flat rack should give a reasonable expectation to find the original owner if they posted here.

Welcome aboard! now go get some dirt on her! (again.. the truck.. shessh!) :naughty:

Bad ass looking truck. She must be some lady. Now make sure you get some time behind the wheel.

:welcome: and Congrats.
Looks more like a trail than a limited, not much chrome and the rocker panel looks like one of a trail.

either way, the truck looks bad ass, live the wheels on this truck.

:...the rocker panel looks like one of a trail..

Nop.. did a TE rocker conversion on mine; the fender flares would look different if that was converted (how they wrap under the truck). Regardless; it looks like a great place to start or be done right of the bat, depending on what she decides to use the truck for and what other mods she may or may not have in mind.

The utility rack is great for adding a Roof Top Tent on and be ready for some trail camping.

Thanks for the compliments fellas. All the chrome has been blacked out on this one. It also has flat black through the middle of the hood.
One thing I noticed is it seems to be about 3/4 inch higher in the back. The coils are ome medium duty. Do I need to put some softer springs on?

Very nice choice and cant believe someone would get rid of one with so much money invested so soon. Owell their loss and your gain!

I definitely recall someone on these forums blacking out the middle of their hood.

Placecraft20, any woman who is smart enough to buy a modded 4runner should be immediately upgraded from girlfriend to fiance status.

WHOA why would you do that to a brutha? you know that is the first step in the "MOD Fund removal process"

I only wish I could send my wife car shopping and that she would come home with something like that. Nice catch on both!

No, it's a step closer to that rig becoming his.:wink2:

ah the glass is half full trick.... I have learned not to fall for that one anymore lol!

 

[DEKA3]

Welcome. Maybe mentioning where you got the truck or where you live might help someone figure out the previous owner....if your still interested in knowing!

Nice rig! What tires are you running and what size?

 

[PLACECRAFT20]

The tires are cooper 285's all terrains. It has a nice stance in the front so I was either going to cut a little off the rear coil or just replace them to get the truck level. I trimmed the front inner fender plastic and got rid of the tire rub.
I am a jeep guy and have built many of the TJ style jeeps with long arm suspensions etc. it looks to me to have stock lower rear control arms and a stock track bar but the rear end still seems centered. Do the Toyotas not need after market arms and track bars to center the rear after the lift?
The car fax on the truck shows it came from Virginia. I am in east Texas. Looks like it got here by being passed through a auction. Just shows one owner.
By the way, I plan on making her a permanent resident at Christmas time.
